We spent one night here. The showers and bathroom were not usable. The location has a wonderful view and a nice walk about over the marsh. The City pool is on the edge of the premises but not open this time of year. The RV park area was clean and well lit. Because it is a public park there is a lot of foot traffic and vehicle traffic coming and going to use the playground and access the beach area. I would not feel comfortable leaving my site and leaving any personal items outside. I will not stay here again. The fee must be paid in cash or check. - glasslipper

Stayed overnight at this RV park enroute to the Rio Grande area. Very nice view of the Gulf of Mexico, long walkway and a fishing pier as well as a boat launching area. Sites are quite close together but for one night it was fine. Lots of campers stay here for the winter months and enjoy the convenience of fishing within a couple of minutes walk to the pier. Would stay here again if visiting the area. - Shirley Briand

Rate reflects Good Sam discount. Pull throughs are 50 amp. Good power and great water pressure. Sites a little narrow but 80' long. Site is level. Good roads. Sprint works good here. Nice laundry if you need one. This is a city park, but very well managed and maintained. Nice semi circle pier good for walking. Pool is actually a YMCA pool so there is a $4.00 charge unless you are a YMCA member. Great location with beautiful views. Will stay here again next time in the area. - SouthernNights

We stayed here for a week while visiting friends. Being right on the water was a real plus here. There is a nature preserve at the park with a long boardwalk that I used each morning. There are 8 pull throughs that are limited to 7 days. Another section of back-ins were full & seemed to be long term campers. Another section, right on the beach (30 amp), had covered picnic benches. Since this is a public park the restrooms were OK but park like equipment with no showers. There is a social room for campers only with a better rest room. Camp hosts were all very nice. We certainly return here again. - timbo1

We stayed in Texas Lakeside RV Resort for three weeks in a fifth wheel and do not plan to return. The park is clean and well kept but it is also about 75% occupied by permanent residents and most are construction workers. The morning work caravan begins at about 5 a.m. and is mostly diesel trucks so there is lots of early morning noise. The construction workers drive like they are on a raceway even though there is a 7 mph speed limit. The neighbors surrounding the park have lots of dogs so they are constantly barking at dogs owned by park residents which is very noisy. The park is surrounded on two sides by two busy and noisy streets. To make matter worse their is an EMT dispatch location on one side of the park so there are many sirens all through the day and night. The persons who manage the park are not friendly and when we did go to the office to ask a question the person at the desk acted like we were bothering her computer activity and would not look at us. The WIFI system was only available for at most 2 hours per day so it is basically non existent even though they claim it is strong. When we ask the park manager about the problem she indicated it is a cable company issue. Charges for power are also a ripoff. We were told the electric rate but no one mentioned the $5.00 per month meter charge and if a stay spans two months there are two $5.00 charges. The clubhouse is nice but no one uses the facility because the park managers do not promote activities. Many of the spaces are very difficult to get in because they are straight in off of a narrow street. The website also says there are many things to do in Port Lavaca when in fact there is nothing to do. Port Lavaca is mostly a slum town with lots of crime. There are also very few restaurants. The laundry is nice and the rest rooms are clean but those amenities are overshadowed by the other bad issues with the park. Needless to say we will never be back. However if all you are looking for is a nice laundry and a clean restroom this park (or should I say trailer park) is for you. - Travelers456

Rally rate, but regular rate is to high for location. Very friendly staff. Park is 2 years old. Lots of trailer, campers, 5 th wheels and full time worker residents. No tables. Strong Wi-Fi and cable. We backed up to the pond which was nice. - Oooooooo

Definitely a very nice, clean, new RV resort. The cleanest restrooms and showers I've seen anywhere. It's not cheap, but you get what you pay for. Very nice fitness center, kitchen, laundry, meeting room, park store, etc. Nice lake in the center with concrete walkway all the way around. Bath houses front and rear of park. And it has gates that close at 6pm. Yes, its nice. The only thing keeping me from giving it a 10 is something they can't do anything about and that's, location. It is bordered on two sides by very busy roads with considerable vehicle noise. And one of the roads has an EMS ambulance office located on it, so you get sirens at all hours of the day and night. If you want a peaceful, quiet, spot in the wilderness, this would not be for you. The other thing that would help this park would be for more landscaping in the form of maybe palm trees and flowers. It's a new park, so most of the trees and bushes are going to take a few years to grow. Don't look for shade because you're not going to find any. Would have been nice had they planted large trees between campers. It does have nice grassy areas between campers and plenty of space between neighbors. It has a lot of positives. I personally was very impressed with it and like it despite the road noise and the need for some more trees and shrubs. Love the large concrete pads and roads. I hate parks where you have to park your RV on grass or gravel. I would recommend it for anyone to give it a try. If it's not your cup of tea, fine. But you simply will not find a newer and cleaner park than this. - so.cal4me
